My Um Quit Working - During a Show!

In summary, if your Um stops working during a show, it could be due to technical issues, overheating, or excessive use. To prevent this, make sure to fully charge it before use, take breaks during use, and handle it gently. If it stops working and is under warranty, you can request a replacement. If not, a new Um may need to be purchased. Troubleshooting steps include checking for a full charge and loose connections, resetting the device, or contacting customer service. It is not recommended to use the Um while it is charging to prevent damage.

I just got home from a show where my UM didn't work!! :eek: Seriously, I tried, the host and a guest tried, it just wouldn't work! One of the hosts said "She did this on purpose to demonstrate the warranty!" lol
Anyone had this happen before??

I don't think I did too great with the show tonight anyway, but this just made it worse! At least I walked out of there with over $300 in sales so far. The host says she'll have the rest and will be ready to close tomorrow! :thumbup:
 
Hey, at least your host had a good line for you!
 
That happened to me a couple times....I finally figured out what was wrong! When you push the blade in - you have to make sure it clicks all the way in to place. It can look like it is in place, but there is one final little click that really locks it in there. If it's not all the way in, then the blade won't raise up when the guard passes over it.

Maybe that's what was wrong! The blade wouldn't come up, no matter what we did!
 
I was showing how the egg slicer plus cut perfect slices of mushrooms the other day when the wires broke and mushroom went flying EVERYWHERE!! I took that opportunity to tell about PC's wonderful warranty program!
